Department of Pediatric Surgery, Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine, 65 Tsurumai-Cho, Showa, Nagoya, Aichi, 466-8550, Japan.
Purpose: To analyze the frequency and predictive factors of the development of postoperative pectus excavatum and scoliosis in children who underwent surgery for cystic lung disease.
Methods: This study examined patients who underwent surgery for cystic lung disease (open and thoracoscopic) between July 2000 and December 2018 with a > 3-year follow-up period.
